Copenhagen’s dedication to sustainable urban development is epitomized by Under Elmene. As part of the city’s ambitious plan to create more open spaces, reduce traffic congestion, and achieve carbon neutrality by 2025, this innovative project integrates cutting-edge parking solutions into the urban fabric. Under Elmene represents a fusion of technology and environmental stewardship, showcasing Copenhagen’s leadership in sustainable city planning on a global scale.
Copenhagen faced the dual challenge of meeting growing parking demands while striving for a greener, pedestrian-friendly environment.
